The Steemtopia Network of Learning is happy to provide another update for Steemians that want to share their knowledge and skills in different areas of life to help other Steemians. SNL is also proud to partner with the #newbieresteemday initiative, @steemgigs, @steemfreelancers, @thesteemhouse, @steemfreepress and individuals who wish to share their knowledge and skills with the rest of the Steemit community.

First I want to share with you some of the exciting things I have been hearing and learning about this week...

News

It's all fun and games!

The #newbiegames is in its second week and I would like to thank all the people that are actively participating by creating and playing games. This week's game is a scavenger hunt created by @jorlauski:

There are some very good people behind this and it is all for the benefit of supporting new comers to the Steemit community, and this week we also have a contest sponsored by @earthnation and @steembasicincome:

(Classical) Music Lovers Discord Channel

@bengy is someone who is very active on newbiegames but did you know that he has already created a group for music lovers on Discord?

Creating Voxel Art (for those who like to draw in a different way)

@wannaf shared with us a very useful tool called MagicaVoxel in a post with some nice designs:

• https://steemit.com/cryptoart/@wanaf/steem-logo-in-toy-bricks-creativecommons
• https://steemit.com/cryptoart/@wanaf/steem-logo-island-creative-commons

I always wondered how these things were created, and now I know!

Reminders

Brush up on Markup

While trying to create some games for the initiative, I had to brush up on my own post formatting and so I dound some good links that newbies might be interested in (if you know of more please let me know):

Wiki page for all things Steem related

If you find the FAQ pages for Steemit a little bit tough going, there is another good resource available without having to trawl through heaps o findividual posts at @steemcenterwiki:

The quest for a more positive Steemit

Something that I am very happy to hear about this week is @fulltimegeek's quest to make the Steemit community a much more positive experience for everyone, and our way to support it:

Whether you are new to Steemit or an experienced Steemian, if you have a passion or genuine interest in sharing your knowledge and helping other Steemians out there, the Steemtopia Network of Learning is for you! Read about the initiative here:

The learning circles provided for people to list their interests/topics are as follows:

I will continue to update this table with people who have expressed interest in learning and sharing their knowledge in this network:

username	TEACHING	LEARNING	CONTACT

Do you know anyone who is a wealth of knowledge in any of these areas and would like to share their knowledge with other Steemians? Do you think there are other learning circles that should be added? Please let me know and I will feature them in future SNL posts :)
